get some 60mm springs there better and what anyone says about not doing it because of the standard shocks is rubbish they dont break quickly they just have to work harder
reight well you have a couple of options in my opinion you can fit a set of decent front spreakers, and a set of 6x9's which will produce a nice sound but not much base. or the best option and the one that sounds the best is to fit a nice 10" sub ...(smaller the sub the more control and punch it...
